Experience Overview

On this 18-day Moroccan adventure, you’ll travel in the footsteps of pirates, sultans and nomadic people. Explore the blue streets of Chefchaouen, the ancient Roman ruins of Volubilis, the medieval city of Fes and the intricate clay architecture of the Ait Benhaddou Kasbah. Get to know the locals during your homestays in authentic Amazigh gites, ride a camel in the Sahara over sunset, hike through palm groves, gorges and valleys and kick back in the whitewashed Essaouira. This exhilarating journey is the ultimate way to discover the best of Morocco.

Highlights

  • Connect with local life during your two homestays – one in Moulay Idriss, widely regarded as Morocco's holiest place, and one in a traditional gite with an Amazigh family where you’ll tuck into a homecooked feast.
  • Spend time in some of Morocco’s most iconic cities – relax in Essaouira’s sea breeze, wander the blue lanes of Chefchaouen and travel back in time in Fes’ bustling medina.
  • Hike in the shadows of the High Atlas Mountains, then explore the palm groves and valleys of the Anti Atlas Mountains, surrounded by local Amazigh village life.
  • Travel in a camel convoy and a 4WD to Erg Chigaga in the deep Sahara – the most incredible place to watch the sunset – and spend a night in an Amazigh camp under the North African stars, away from any sound or light pollution.
  • Veer off the beaten track to Tata and Tafraoute, deep in the Anti Atlas Mountain Range. Check out giant blue rocks, visit the traditional granary, meet the women at a local women’s coop producing Argan oil and duck in and out of souqs.

Maybe duck into Café Hafa (which has hosted celebrities like Sean Connery, The Beatles and The Rolling Stones) for a cup of mint tea and views overlooking the Gibraltar. In the afternoon, take a private transfer to Chefchaouen. Set against a wide valley between two peaks in the Rif Mountains, much of Chefchaouen was recreated by Andalusian refugees escaping the Reconquista.

The hiking tour is a popular option, as you can leave the shades of blue and journey across the Rif Mountains to Akchour Falls – a natural wonder, abundant with lush mountains, rivers and waterfalls.

Pass donkeys piled high with goods (this is one of the largest car-free urban zones in the world) and explore the specialty sections that divide the souk. Look out for the Medersa Bou Inania – one of the city's most beautiful buildings, which has recently been restored and is now open to tourists. Visit Medresse el Attarine and the splendid Funduq al-Najjarin – a beautifully restored 18th-century inn.

Tonight, join the crowds for an optional dinner in the Djemaa el-Fna – the city's main square and one of the largest public meeting places in the world.

Make the 1-hour trek to the peaceful village of Aroumd. Perched on a rocky outcrop, the remote village offers stunning views across the High Atlas Mountains and a unique opportunity to experience traditional Amazigh culture. Spend the night in a family-run mountain gite where, surrounded by the smell of woodstoves and bread, you’ll enjoy traditional hospitality and homecooked food. Use the rest of the day to explore the village and the surrounding farmlands. If the group is up for it and weather permits, there will be a chance to hike to the pilgrimage shrine of Sidi Chamharouch (approximately 4 hours return).

10
Day 10: Ait Benhaddou

This morning, journey along mountain roads and over Morocco's highest pass, Tizi n'Tichka (2260 m above sea level), to Ait Benhaddou on the edges of the Sahara. Perched on a hilltop and almost unchanged since the 11th century, Ait Benhaddou is one of Morocco's most iconic sites and a World Heritage site. It was once an important stop for caravans passing through as they carried salt across the Sahara, returning with gold, ivory and slaves. Does it look familiar? The town has a long list of film and TV credits, including Lawrence of Arabia, Game of Thrones and Gladiator! Enjoy a leader-led walk through the winding streets of the Old Town, making your way to the top of the hill, from where you can enjoy the views across the surrounding plains. Your evening is free, with the option of partaking in a local cooking demonstration and meal of Morocco's most famous dishes –couscous and tagine.

11
Day 11: Sahara Desert

Today, you’ll have a full day of driving as you journey south towards the Sahara Desert. After breakfast, drive through the Draa Valley to Zagora, where you’ll see the original route of the caravans. Then, travel along the rugged and desolate Jbel Tadrart ranges through seas of sand and past the occasional desert oasis of date palms to the township of Tamegroute. Here, you’ll visit a library filled with ancient scripts of science, literature and stories of the prophet Mohammed. After, join a local guide to uncover the underground Kasbah. Carry on driving to the frontier town of M'Hamid. From here, your group will jump into 4WDs to the massive Erg Chigaga dunes. This is the largest dune in the Moroccan Sahara and one of the less visited – meaning your experience will be further from surrounding towns and villages, away from the tourist trail. Arrive in the late afternoon, where you’ll get ready for the experience of a lifetime – riding on the backs on camels into the Saharan sunset. Tonight, the starry sky won’t disappoint.

Included Activities:

  • Tamegroute - Ancient Library
  • Tamegroute - Underground kasbah guided tour
  • Sahara Desert - Sunset Camel Ride

Accommodation:

  • Desert camp (Multishare) (Number of Nights: 1)

12
Day 12: Tissint/Tata

If you’re an early bird, you might want to head to the nearest dune this morning and watch the sunrise – this spectacle in the Sahara Desert is well worth the alarm! After breakfast, you’ll hop back into the 4WDs and drive out of the desert, switching to your private vehicle on the way to Tata. On the way, stop at the waterfall of Attiq in Tissint for a refreshing change of scenery. These waterfalls are all saltwater and the translation of ‘Tissint’ in the local language is ‘salt’! When you arrive in Tata mid afternoon, you’ll have a free evening to relax. If you like, explore downtown with your leader tonight and head out for a great local dinner.

Included Activities:

  • Tata - Leader-led orientation walk
  • Tissint – Waterfall of Attiq

Accommodation:

  • Hotel (Number of Nights: 1)

13
Day 13: Tleta Tagmoute/Tafraoute

This morning, drive to Tleta Tagmoute – a small village where you’ll get to see the oasis granaries, date palm plantations and fruit trees. The lifestyle and irrigation system here is quite unique to the region and you’ll get a deeper understanding of what life was like here with a visit to the old collective granary that’s still in use. After exploring, continue to Tafraoute, arriving in the afternoon. This southern Moroccan village sits in the shadows of the Anti Atlas Mountain Range. Although it’s now more of a campervan destination, Tafraoute remains authentic and a great base for exploring the Anti Atlas region. When you arrive, you’ll head out for a village walk and visit the local souqs to check out how the traditional babouche is made.

Included Activities:

  • Tleta Tagmoute – Amazigh village and collective granary visit
  • Tafraoute – village walk and souk visit

Accommodation:

  • Hotel (Number of Nights: 1)

14
Day 14: Tafraoute

Go for a hike in the Ameln Valley this morning, passing through small Amazigh villages, both old and new. The hike will take you through palm trees, almond trees and fields of alfalfa crops used by locals to feed their animals. On the way, stop for a rare chance to visit a traditional Amazigh house that's preserved by your host to showcase the traditional lifestyle, which is changing fast in the modern day. You'll be able to learn about how the traditional Amazigh household functions, and learn about your host's story of growing up here over a cup of freshly made mint tea. The area is quite rocky in general, so sturdy shoes are needed. Also stop for lunch set against the beautiful view of the valley. In the afternoon, head to one of the most controversial sights here – the Pierres Bleues (painted rocks). The Belgian artist Jean Verame spray painted these boulders in 1984 and visitors still debate whether these rocks are an artwork or not (so you can decide for yourself!). The evening is yours to spend.

Included Activities:

  • Tafraoute - Ameln Valley hike
  • Tafraoute - Traditional Amazigh House visit
  • Tafraoute - Pierres Bleues Boulders (Painted Rocks)

Accommodation:

  • Hotel (Number of Nights: 1)

15
Day 15: Essaouira

Today will be a bit of a long travel day as you head towards the Atlantic. Passing desert scenery, your route is actually a reserve for the Indigenous argan trees. You’ll stop at a local woman’s cooperative along the way, which specialises in Argan oil production. This coop provides women and their families in the rural area with extra income for their community, promoting independence. You’ll learn about how the Argan is extracted from the trees, how it’s produced, then you’ll get to try the freshly made Amlou paste. Carry on to Essaouira (translating to ‘pretty picture’). Within the stone ramparts, you'll find whitewashed houses with bright blue shutters, art galleries and wood workshops – the perfect spot for photos. This evening is free for you to explore or relax.

Included Activities:

  • Taghazoute – Argan oil women's co-op visit

Accommodation:

  • Riad (Number of Nights: 1)

16
Day 16: Essaouira

Today after breakfast, join a local guide for a walking tour through the old medina, Jewish mellah, port and skala (sea wall). Essaouira is one of the oldest port cities in the country, and fishing here is still quite traditional. You’ll have the chance to meet one of the expert fishermen in the port, who will tell the group all about their story and show you some of the tricks they use, what type of fish to catch and what seasons mean to them. After, enjoy free time for the rest of the day. Jimi Hendrix spent a lot of time here during the 60s, so you know this is a great spot to sit, people watch and listen to the sound of the ocean. Maybe grab a freshly cooked plate of the day's catch at the port or browse the plentiful shops and intriguing art galleries. This is also a hotspot for surfing, so consider taking a lesson if that’s your thing. If you’d prefer to relax, don't miss the opportunity to indulge in a hammam (Moroccan day spa) or local-style bath.

Included Activities:

  • Essaouira - Guided walking tour
  • Essaouira – Local fisherman visit

Optional Activities:

  • Essaouira - Hamam (public baths) (200 MAD)

Day 17: Marrakech

Enjoy a free morning in Essaouira, then catch a bus back to Marrakech in the afternoon. Enjoy free time when you arrive, to explore or partake in optional activities. Walk around the famed Djemaa el-Fna – from fire dancers to performers and street food carts, this is somewhere you actually want to get lost. Maybe check out the Palais Bahia, a superb example of Muslim architecture, or the ruins of the Palais Badi. Join your group tonight for an optional farewell dinner.

Optional Activities:

  • Marrakech - A Taste Of Marrakech: Inside the Medina Urban Adventure (605 MAD)
  • Marrakech - Tajine Cookery Class Urban Adventure. (640 MAD)
  • Marrakech - Luxury Spa Hammam & Massage (750 MAD)

We took Morocco Encompassed tour in April with Intrepid Travels. Although it can be a challenging time to visit a Muslim county suiting Ramadan and Eid , the trip was managed incredibly well, without any glitches. Intrepid is an incredible company to travel with with small groups. They provide perfect service for you to get to know the culture of the country, they give you enough guidance and knowledge yet you have enough time to explore on your own. We really appreciate the meal arrangements with the private local people which gave us insights of the culture . Perfect balanced trip with a great group leader Aziz. Thank you Intrepid for a wonderful and memorable experience.

My trip to Morocco exceeded my expectations. I’ve always dreamed of going to Morocco and was so pleased with this all encompassing trip which included the amazing blue city and some very charming accommodations as well as two fabulous guides to smoothly ensure that we were well taken care of. The Moroccans are very proud of their country and I can now see why. If Morocco is in your bucket list don’t hesitate… just book as you won’t be disappointed!

This trip was beyond words. It was a great balance of big and small cities, the desert (unbelievable!) and the coast. It also had a fair balance of included activities and free time. It would be difficult to do all the things and have all the experiences we did arranging it on your own; the itinerary was well organized. Our tour leader, Redouan, was spectacular. He made the trip effortless and went above and beyond to ensure that each member of the group had the best experience possible. The overall experience was so much more than I expected.

Morocco encompassed truly did cover a large portion of the country. I feel as if I got to experience the people at the places of this wonderful country. It is very fast paced trip with a lot of walking at times. Our tour leader, Idrie, was fantastic, and was with us throughout the whole trip. He made the whole thing run smoothly and was always available to assist. Local guides were all good as well and a lot of activities really made the trip special. The desert camel ride at sunset along with music and dancing by firelight and sleeping under the stars was so special. Also the homestay, Chefchaouen, Essaouira we’re among my favorites. It was a trip made of memories!
